Susan after making multiple turns finally found her way to the staircase. She quickly went down the stairs and found herself in the open space. The exit door was just a walk away from her left, and the living room was also a couple of walks away from her right. She requested an Uber and was soon out of Bryce's home. Josephine locked the main door as Susan left before returning to her room.Inside the Uber, on her way back to her apartment, Susan called Eva."Have you found Angela yet?" Susan asked."No, it's like she just vanished into theme air," Eva replied."Keep looking, I am sure she is hiding somewhere. Bryce seems to like her and I want to know why," Bryce said and the Uber driver looked at Susan briefly in the rearview mirror before focusing his gaze on the road."And about Bernard. When are you going to help me with him?" Eva asked. "Let the sun come up and I will tell you what to do," Susan replied before ending the call."Who are you, Angela? Why does Bryce like you?" Susa
"Hmm, I think, I need to make a call to someone," Susan said and retrieved her phone from her bag. She quickly dialled Devon's number and waited for the call to connect."Hmm," Susan heard a voice."Mr Moore, Bryce is at it again. Today he had an email circulated in the company that Angela Anderson is on sick leave. He is still looking for her and that means he would not go through with the engagement," Susan cried on the phone."Ah! So you are the one feeding my husband with this information?" Patricia replied to Susan and Susan removed the phone from her ears to check whom she had called.Mr Devon Moore was displayed on the phone screen. She had called the right person but Patricia had answered."I am sorry, Mrs Moore. Mr Moore tasked me with monitoring your son. I am only doing my job," Susan defended."I see," Patricia said. "This should be the last time, you call my husband," she warned and ended the call."Bitch!" Susan cursed and tossed the phone back into her bag.A&J GroupZ
"Fabian!" Zora called out to him and Angela lowered her head."I am sorry. Er.. something crossed my mind for a second," Fabian apologized staring at Zora and he shifted his gaze to Angela. "Welcome to A&J Group. We deal in building materials," he welcomed Angela offering her a handshake while standing to his feet."Thank you," Angela replied accepting the handshake.Zora watched the two especially Fabian who appeared to be in his world since he saw Angela."I am Fabian Manson, son and only billionaire heir of the Manson family," Fabian introduced and Zora cleared her throat."About the job," Zora reminded realizing what was happening."Oh yes," Fabian said still holding Angela's hand."She is married," Zora coughed the words out but Fabian appeared not to be paying attention to Zora."We will start the interview shortly," Fabian said and Angela pulled her hand from his feeling a bit awkward.After a brief conversation, Fabian went with Angela to the place prepared for the interview w
"What do you want in my office," Bernard said as he strode into the office."Well, I know you care a lot about Angela Anderson," Susan began and Bernard was suddenly interested in what she was saying. "I found her," she added."You are not playing any tricks, are you?" Bernard said and sat behind his desk."What would I gain from it?" Susan asked and Bernard realised there was nothing Susan would gain for lying about Angela's location.Bernard did not believe Angela was sick. He felt Bryce was hiding something. Even though he had no justification for his suspicion, he knew Bryce had never defended any woman who had worked with him as his secretary. So he was surprised when Bryce called and asked him to communicate with the senior management team, Angela was on sick leave whilst Angela had not sent any email."So where is she?" Bernard asked. "She is meeting up with someone tonight. I will give you the details and you can meet her instead," Susan said. "Look, Mr Moore is interested in
Bernard continued to kiss Eva who responded excitedly. Her hands unbuttoned Bernard's shirt and soon she tossed it away. She quickly took her one-piece clothes off and she ended up on the bed with Bernard in just her bikini. Bernard was very rough but Eva didn't care. Soon her panty and bra were off her body too. She unbuckled Bernard's belt and unbuttoned his pants freeing his shaft which was standing tall and mighty. Eva impaled herself with it and Bernard began to pound her like his life dependent on it. Eva let out a moan enjoying the rough passionate moment with Bernard. Bernard held Eva by the neck and pressed her down while he pounded away.At Zora's place, Zora was back home and she and Angela discussed what to do the next day."I am so happy for you," Zora said excitedly, raising the glass of water she was holding. "To a new beginning," she toasts."Thanks," Angela said pretending to be holding a glass too and she clicked it to Zora's."Okay, so hopefully, you start your orie
The night slowly passed by and it was soon morning. Zora was first to wake up and her movement woke Angela up. The two ladies got ready for work. Zora kept teasing Angela all through about what happened in the middle of the night till they left the apartment for work.At Bryce's family home, Elena was also up getting ready for her class but she wanted to meet her friend who would lead her to Zora, so she decided to leave home earlier than her usual time. Devon came downstairs and met Elena coming from the kitchen holding a cup of coffee fully dressed."And where are you going this early? Your class do not start until 11 am and it's just a 45 minutes drive from here," Devon asked looking at the clock on the wall which read 7 am."I am meeting up with a friend for something very important," Elena replied."What is so important, you have to leave this house early to meet up with the person? How about the person come over to you," Devon said."Dad, I am not a kid any more. I can take care
"Let's confirm first, that is where she is staying now and I will pay her a visit," Bryce said.Marcus nodded and followed Bryce with the two others heading for the door. Soon they were on their way to Diamond Corporation. At a coffee shop in New York City, Elena was sitting behind a small table with a hot cup of coffee in hand. She occasionally looked in the direction of the door. She was waiting for her friend. She had already spent twenty minutes and her friend was unreachable via phone. She emptied the cup of coffee and called the waiter. She stood up and was about to leave when the door to the coffee shop opened. A young lady strode in and Elena smiled. "I would have a bottle of water please," Elena said to the waiter who was also about to leave after collecting his money."Yes ma'am," the waiter said."Monica, over here," Elena said waving her hand in the air.Monica stood at the entrance scanning the place for Elena. Her gaze quickly fell on the lady waving her hands in the ai
Monica ended the call and Elena smiled ear to ear."Thank you, dear friend," Elena said and smiled at Monica."Don't rejoice yet. My cousin is now going to try to arrange for a meet-up," Monica said."I feel positive within me. I will get to meet Ms Zora," Elena said. "Great, let's go for our class, we have an hour," she added.Elena made payment and they both left the coffee shop. Elena called her mother unaware she was being monitored. "Hello mum, everything went through successfully. I am positive I will meet Ms Angela's friend soon," Elena said as they stood by the roadside in front of the coffee shop."Elena, don't get too excited yet. Wait till you meet Ms Angela and we can be excited about it," Patricia said."Awww, mum. Be positive for once. I will see her before this weekend," Elena said enthusiastically and Monica just stared at her side profile shaking her head. Monica raised her hand and stopped a cab and the two entered. A man who was sitting behind a table in from of th
Bryce stared at the document and laughed. He didn't even take it from Jay's hand. Jay pulled up his phone and was about to call the police but five officers entered."No need to call, we are already here?" the officer leading the officers said."Good, this man here is trespassing on private property," Jay reported."This is how I know you are fake," Bryce said. "Let me tell you a story," he said."When I noticed something about the Davis family wasn't right, I started doing my private investigation. I realized you were onto me. I tasked some people to watch you and report everything you do to me. I knew you were going to attack my home so, I had this fake document prepared and left there for you to pick up. I spoke with someone at the office and told him that if anyone comes to authenticate this document, they should confirm it's legit. I made you believe I was focusing my energy on your mother and my uncle but I was watching you. When your mother was sent to prison, I knew you would
Within a few minutes, all channels on the TV were announcing the change of ownership for Diamond Corporation, now PEG Industries. Ivan after addressing the employees and informing them of what to expect, had his people go through the employee's contracts. He terminated all employees who were above 6 months old in the company. To him, they have worked with Bryce and will be loyal to him. When he was done, he only had three employees left. Zora who was just a week old and two employees who were just two months old in the company. "You are Zora," Ivan said staring at Zora who had been brought to his office, the office used by Bryce."I am going to let you stay and work, as," Ivan said and picked up Zora's contract. "As HR manager. You will help my boy here recruit new employees starting tomorrow," he said. "I will reduce your salary by 40% because of your relationship with Bryce. This is your punishment. I am only keeping you because you knew your place when my lawyer announced me," he
Ivan left the living room, holding the company document and smiling from ear to ear. He climbed the staircase to his bedroom floor and walked down the hallway toward the huge master bedroom door at the end of the hallway. Two guards stood on either side of the door. As he approached, they opened the door for him."Bryce, Bryce, by sunrise, you will lose everything. I am now the new owner of your company and also have the documents that make you the heir of the Moore family," Ivan said and smiled.When Matilda Davis brought Bryce to the Davis family and presented him as the new Don, Ivan was worried, because he thought he was being trained to become the new Don. When he asked his mother, she told him to focus on his training. He had someone run an investigation on Bryce. After finding out about who Bryce was, he started monitoring him. When he realized Bryce was onto his mother, he also made his men move. He wanted to be the one to bring Bryce to his knees, so he kept his findings to h
She sent her location via text to Elorm and got up from behind the study desk. She put the documents into her drawer and walked towards her closet. She went through her clothes and grabbed a sexy black small dress. She slipped into the dress. She stood in front of the mirror and was about to apply some makeup when she remembered Martin."What if he is back home now?" Zora thought. She quickly thought of an excuse to give and still go out of the house. With a convincing thought in mind, she packed her makeup tools into her bag and grabbed a long jacket. She quickly wore it over her sexy small dress. She put on her shoes and exited her bedroom. She locked the door and started walking towards Martin's bedroom door. She stood behind Martin's bedroom door and knocked. She had already planned on what to tell Martin as soon as he opened the door. She waited a while and there was no response. She knocked again and tried opening the door and realized it was locked. She turned around and wal
"Take the device off Zora's phone once this is over. I will be right back," Martin said to Bernard and exited the office after Bernard had acknowledged. Martin left Bernard's office but didn't go up to Bryce's office. He walked toward Zora's office and opened the door without knocking. As he had suspected, Zora was not in her office. He already knew she was looking for the company's document. He left the place and walked towards the elevator. As soon as the elevator door opened and he stepped inside, Elorm took a peek at the hallway. He heard the footsteps in the hallway and next was Zora's office door opening which was the office next to his. This is why he came out to see who it was once he heard the elevator door open. He caught sight of Martin's back before he entered the elevator."Hmm, if I want I can take Zora away from you and you will not stand a chance. I know her better than you but that is not my motive now. It's a shame, you will all go six feet under soon," Elorm though
Bernard was in his office when his monitoring device picked up Elorm's conversation. He recorded everything.The day went by normally, with everyone in the office going about their duties. Elorm appeared to be showing how committed he was to his new job, which left Zora confused about who he was and his intentions. She knew there was no evidence that Elorm indeed poisoned Angela, but one thing was clear: He lied about his health condition."Was it to get my attention and get back with me?" Zora thought while sitting behind her desk in her office.She recalled things that had happened since the day Elorm showed her his medical report and she thought he was dying. He had kissed her that day. He unexpectedly kissed her again during the company launch and at the hospital, he almost took things beyond a mere kiss, had she not had the will to stop him. He was going to take her right there on the couch with Angela lying on a bed in a coma in the same room with them. "He just wanted to win m
"He used you to harm Angela. I am going to use you to punish him," Bryce said and Zora raised her head to stare at him. "Now listen to me carefully. Tomorrow, you will go to the office and act normal. By normal I mean he must know that you know his correct health status. Onboard him and let him start work," he added and Zora expressed confusion."Is that all that I am supposed to do?" Zora asked staring at Bryce."Yes, give him the job, and don't change your attitude toward him," Bryce echoed, and Zora nodded. "I am done," he said and at that moment Angela woke up."Zora, you are here?" Angela said drawing everyone's attention in her direction. Zora smiled and walked up to her and stood by her bedside. She held Angela's hand in hers and smiled."I am glad you are awake. How are you?" Zora asked and Angela smiled.Bryce and Martin just stared at the two women chatting."Where is mummy and daddy?" Angela asked and Zora turned to look at Bryce and Martin."They travelled," Bryce quickly
"What are you talking about?" Zora tried to play smart."Who is he?" Martin questioned and showed the picture to Zora. Zora stared at the image of Elorm on Martin's screen and gulped. "It's not what you think. He didn't do anything. I was with Angela when he left." Zora tried to shield Elorm and Martin frowned."So why did you lie about it the first time?" Martin asked."He is my friend and he has cancer. He is dying. I didn't want you to add him to your list of suspects. He is a good man," Zora defended."Is he your ex?" Martin asked and Zora lowered her head."Yes," Zora replied in a low tone. "He broke up with me when he found out about his health. He didn't want to drag me into his problems," she added."So you want to go back to him?" Martin asked and Zora raised her head to stare at his face."No," Zora replied with a frown."So why were you kissing him? I saw you twice. Is it part of a healing process?" Martin asked feeling hurt about Zora meeting up with her ex."I didn't ki
Martin stared at her carefully. Zora's heart raced in her chest and Martin picked something staring into her eyes. She appeared to be hiding something."Zora, tell me the truth. I know someone came here. Don't lie to me," Martin said and Zora hardened her heart.She couldn't bring herself to give Elorm away. She was sure Elorm didn't do anything to Angela. If anything, she believed someone may have come in after Elorm left."I was alone with Angela. I left to use the washroom. When I came back, I didn't see anything amiss. I sat down and dosed off. I heard some beeping sound and opened my eyes. I was greeted with the scene of people surrounding Angela's bed," Zora narrated."How long were you in the washroom?" Martin asked."I am not sure but I was there for a while," Zora replied and Martin frowned."What were you doing in the washroom?" Martin asked trying to calculate how long Zora was in the washroom and the possibility of someone entering Angela's ward and exiting without her not
